Kai Havertz will change - Chelsea FC is the hottest contender. Why was FC Bayern never an issue? A report reveals the real reason.
- Kai Havertz will leave Bayer Leverkusen * and probably also the Bundesliga *.
- He is apparently already in agreement with FC Chelsea - but Rudi Völler is stepping on the brakes.
- The FC Bayern * rose for a valid reason not enter the poker.
Update from August 27, 2020, 6.55 a.m.: That Kai Havertz will switch to Chelsea is now considered relatively certain. The Italian transfer insider Fabrizio Romano reports just like Sport Bild that Havertz has agreed on a contract with the English top club - and that Bayer Leverkusen has accepted an offer of 80 million euros plus 20 million bonuses.
Bayer sports director Rudi Völler denied this message on Monday - he told SID that it was "nonsense". FC Bayern was also repeatedly mentioned as a possible address - but after the transfer of Leroy Sané , boss Karl-Heinz Rummenigge made it clear that another change of this magnitude was impossible for the Munich team. But that was not the whole truth, if you believe the picture .
The newspaper reported on Wednesday evening that triple trainer Hansi Flick * was the one who rejected a possible Havertz transfer. His clear message was: Because he has Thomas Müller , Havertz is out of the question for him - there is no place for the top talent in the coming years. Flick strengthened Müller's back - that bore fruit: The Bavarian identification figure delivered a top season in the Havertz position and contributed significantly to winning the triple.
Bayern are now focusing on other names * - it is possible that the record champions will strike again on the transfer market.
Kai Havertz: Transfer to Chelsea fixed? Clumsy detail makes English fans freak out
First report from July 27, 2020: Leverkusen / London - The move from Kai Havertz to Chelsea is getting closer and closer. The Blues made it clear for the Champions League * on the last day of the Premier League * with a 2-0 win against Wolverhampton Wanderers . Participation in the premier class should be an important criterion for Havertz . But also financially, the CL qualification offers the Londoners more leeway - because Havertz is not cheap.
According to information from the British-American sports portal The Athletic , Kai Havertz has already reached an agreement with Chelsea . Now it is up to the clubs to find an agreement. Leverkusen's managing director Rudi Völler has remained tough in the recent past with regard to the transfer for a transfer of the 21-year-old super talent - he demands 100 million euros . Now Bayer could meet Chelsea for the first time. The Athletic writes that they are ready to negotiate in Leverkusen even with a sum of 70 million plus bonus payments .

The transfer of Pedro (to AS Roma) and the imminent departure of Willian also point to a Havertz transfer in the Blues . Chelsea has already struck on the transfer market *: Timo Werner (who was already in the stands at the Wolverhampton game) came for 53 million euros from RB Leipzig , Hakim Ziyech for 40 million from Ajax Amsterdam . After surviving the transfer ban , coach Frank Lampard now wants to provide a strong team - with a special focus on young players .
Bayern's newcomer Leroy Sané could already have blabbed Havertz's move to Chelsea on his introduction PK . He spoke of two German newcomers to the English top club. Havertz's team-mate Lars Bender also believes that a decision will be made soon . Together with his captain, Havertz started the preparation last Thursday.
Meanwhile, Havertz himself made sure that many Chelsea fans already see the move as safe. With an Instagram like , he drove the followers of the Blues crazy: Havertz marked a photo of Timo Werner that shows him on his arrival in London with the red heart - which for many is an indication that Havertz will follow his national team-mate. In the meantime, the like has already disappeared.
